Thanks to Opera in Concert, audience members have the rare opportunity to hear a live presentation (without staging) of Gaetano Donizetti’s 1838 opera seria. The Italian’s work is based very loosely on the life of the title character, the second Earl of Essex, who was an influential member of Queen Elizabeth I’s court. (The role of Elizabeth was famously and frequently played by the great, late Beverly Sills.) Alison d’Amato serves as music director and pianist, while Robert Cooper directs the Opera in Concert Chorus.—Rick MacMillan
